What does “cloud‑friendly” Earth data mean?
In this @thrivegeo.bsky.social interview, @yayyyimee.bsky.social breaks it down — from NASA’s cloud migration to why geospatial needs its own “Amazon fulfillment center” moment.

Great listen!

SPOT - the easy way to verify locations Spot is a tool for finding combinations of objects in the public space world-wide.

After a @Bellingcat workshop years ago, a participant built a geolocation tool to find locations that all had i.e. a library and a cafe in a 20m radius. Now, there's a supercharged version of that tool! Thanks @sanjanamv.bsky.social for flagging it. www.findthatspot.io

It saddens me to see what happened. I am so sorry Brianna.

Probably also useful for toddlers and their toys :D
